I mean Paul Kariya came back and scored a goal and he doesn't remember it or the next week after the Stevens hit.
Also NHL due process takes a month...they suspend first and ask questions later. The doctors and arbitrator did rule he was concussed and that it was an accident like read the report. A judge also threw out the linesmans lawsuit and ordered DON to pay the Flames legal bills.
